Radio Days [Original Jive Soundtrack]
(1990)
more music like this
by
Original Soundtrack
Even more so than with most of the soundtracks to Woody Allen's movies, Radio Days is filled with a strong nostalgic tone, comprised as it is of material from the heyday of the swing era, which coincides with the movie's era and setting. Its appeal is, thus, not limited to fans of the movie Radio Days -- rather, owing to the care with which Allen ...

The Five Keys
This early '50s doo wop has a highly polished, easy-on-the-ears sheen. Heavy on the ballads, it also has a few uptempo items. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide

The Best of the Big Bands [Columbia]
(1990)
more music like this
by
Kay Kyser
Kay Kyser was never much more than an entertaining curio in the field of swing music, a novelty act with an unusually good band to back him up. All of his hits from the late '30s until the end of the '40s are represented, most of which have more nostalgic interest today than major musical value, although Ginny Simms and her successors sing well ...

Best of the Capitol and the Aladdin Years

by
The Five Keys
This two-CD set packages the Aladdin and Capitol tracks of the warblers from Newport News, VA. The 45 tracks released from 1951 to 1958 encompass all their hits and misses. The songs are not in chronological order, which is a real bummer; instead, they're compiled according to popularity. "Ling Ting Tong" (Capitol, September 1954), their must ...

Pure Imagination

by
Richie Cole
This 1986 set is altoist Richie Cole's best recording for Concord. Cole, whose exuberant brand of bebop is difficult to resist, turns such songs as "There'll Be Bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover," "Come Fly with Me" and "Flying Down to Rio" into heated jazz. With the help of the fine guitarist Vic Juris, bassist Ed Howard and drummer Victor ...
